Luberon, close to Gordes, for sale, farmhouse from XVIIIth and XIXth centuries to renovate

Provence, Luberon, proche de Gordes, for sale, beautiful old farmhouse built between the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries with two courtyards (one of 35 sqm and the other 85 sqm), a basin fed all year round by a water spring and three wells.

The property has been built on a hillside in a very protected area overlooking the valley, with beautiful views over the Luberon. Stone-walled terraces are planted with 100 year old 'micocoulier' trees, olive trees, cherry trees, truffle oaks, cedars, etc.

The main building was built in a U shape, and has two separate residencies, each with 4 rooms that include 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.

The buildings need to be completely restored, even though the general condition of the structure is good. The roofs need to be renewed, as does the electricity and plumbing.

A detached house with approximately 45 sqm of floorspace on 2 levels (4 rooms, 2 bedrooms, a bathroom) could serve as a housekeeper's home, for example.

In the farmhouse itself, it would be possible to develop almost 1000 sqm of living space spread over two levels.

This property is ideal for those wishing to create a typical Provencal farmhouse to their own taste, using beautiful local materials.

Due to the exceptionally large available space, a 'gîtes' or 'chambre d'hotes' business could also be established.
